Abstract:
A lupine mitochondrial clone containing 5S rRNA gene is characterized. The gene is located on the same strand as 18S rRNA and separated from it by 190 nucleotides. The intergenic region in different plants shows high degree of homology. In the case of lupine and soybean 43 nucleotides upstream of 5S rRNA gene exhibits 100% of homology. Comparisons of lupine 5S rRNA gene sequence with other plant mitochondrial 5S rRNA genes displays high degree of homology (from 89.8% to 95.8%).
